Subject to vibrations

Subject to direct sunlight

• Use caution when placing the speake;s and/or speaker stands (not supplied) that are attached with the speakers on

a specially treated (waxed, oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration ]nay result.

To connect the speaker cords

Connect the speaker cords after bending the bare wire at the end of the insnlation. This prevents the

speaker insnlation from being inserted in the speaker temlinaL

• Do not catch the speaker cord insulation in the SPEAKER jack

Avoiding short-circuiting the speakers

Short-circnitmg of the speakers may damage the system. To prevent this, be sure to follow these

precantions when connecting the speakers. Make sure the bare wire of each speaker cord does not touch

another speaker terminal or the bare wire of another speaker cord.

Examples of poor conditions of the speaker cord

Stripped speaker cord is Strippedcords aretouching each

touching another speaker otherdue to excessive removalof

terminal, insulation.

After connecting all the components, speakers, and AC power cord (mains lead), output a test tone to

check that all the speakers are connected correctly. For details on outputting a test tone, see page 77.

If no sonnd is heard from a speaker while outputting a test tone, or a test tone is output from a speaker

other than the one currently displayed in the front panel display, the speaker may be short-circuited. If

this happens, check the speaker connection again.

• Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: @ to @, and @ to @. If the colds

are reversed, the sound will lack bass and may be distorted
